    huh?

    I'm in complete awwww. If you are actually thinking about taking a rare trike part to fix a crappy(cheap) quad part, I suggest you impose a 1 week suspension from all three wheeler sites on yourself. You need some time off to think about what you did here young man.

    Well, if people use warrior shocks on Z's, then you can use Z shocks on warriors I suppose. The reason people use warrior shocks though is because Z shocks are hard to come by, expensive, and non-rebuildable, just look for a warrior shock.

    ... he was just kidding you vartiak15 ....... He does bring up a good point though - in theory, its next to impossible to find a "good" Tri-Z rear shock - but there are probably thousands of good warrior shocks out there, and cheap I might add - so I would just shoot for that. If hes looking for performance, try a new Works.

    You can take it to any dealer and they will test it - the truth is - if its dampening the springs movement in both compression and rebound ... its still basically working. I would try adjusting the pre-load nut to a heavier setting to see if that helps.
